REVIEWS FOR ZOMBIE CITIES
“If you are a fan of the zombie apocalypse then rock on with Zombie Cities as it’s the best graphic novel in the sub-genre published in Australia, or for that matter world- wide, this year. Zombie Cities joins The Walking Dead at the forefront of the Zombie publishing tide, we’re talking one seriously good book that should have zombie fans walking over the decomposing bodies of their family and friends to get their read on.10/10 Stars” www.scaryminds.com

“There’s a sense of madcap fun with a great mix of drama, action and dark comedy, it’s impressive that each story can stand on its own as a memorable take on this increasingly popular sub-genre. Some may expect that there are simply no more stories to be told regarding the undead but Zombie Cities proves in an entertaining fashion that this just isn’t true.” www.brokenfrontier.com

“With gore, guts and great art, this book is a little Aussie battler that can.“ www.themomusreport.blogspot

THE SILVER FOX COMICS BRAINS TRUST

Silver Fox Comics is an independent self publishing venture based in Sydney, Australia by Sorab Del Rio and Don Ticchio. They both work full time in marketing, graphic design, product development and work on Silver Fox Comics after hours and any spare minute possible. In the past, they have worked on Aussie Comics such as Issue One, Skunge NYPD and Southern Aurora Presents. In 2010, we formed Silver Fox Comics and debuted with 2 new original issues for the legendary pulp fiction character Zorro. Sorab became the first Australian writer to write for Zorro in 2011 and in his day job works on the new line of Phantom merchandise. 

After working on licensed properties they released their first original creator owned graphic novel collection - ZOMBIE CITIES  which launched at Sydney Supanova last year. For Zombie Cities they commissioned artists from Australia and around the world to create this work. This collection features art from Australia's Paul Abstruse, Martin Szabo, Simon Wright, Gee Hale, Leigh Kubbour, Jason Paulos and designers including Bennet Kowald and Paul Rebec. From Brazil and the Phillipines, the art team includes Jopax, Netho Diaz, Assis Leite, Mano Araujo, Eder Messias, Rene Michelette and Eder Messias. Sorab and Don have since taken Zombie Cities to conventions in Brisbane, Gold Coast, Melbourne, Penrith where it's been a best seller at each event. Now with the follow up ZOMBIE CITIES VIOLENCE VS COMPASSION, they are looking toward an international release. 

 

WHY ARE WE CROWD FUNDING?

Zombie Cities involved commissioning all new, all original art making Zombie Cities one of the big budget production graphic novels produced in Australia with a team spanning Sydney, Melbourne, Brazil and the Phillpines. Each graphic novel has taken a year to develop. It's been well worth the effort, as as of the 4th May, we've now sold over 700 copies of Zombie Cities through conventions such as Supanova, Armageddon and through fantastic comic specialty stores such as Kings Comics, Ace Comics, Arcarda Unbound, The Phantom Zone, Kaboom Comics, Ace Comics and Cosmic Comics. For Free Comic Book Day, we were honoured to be part of the Artist Alley for Kinokuniya in Sydney where we introduced Zombie Cities to even more fans and sold out!

Now on the verge of releasing the new Zombie Cities Violence Vs Compassion at Sydney Supanova, we're faced with the daunting to task of not only printing this new volume but also printing the first first Zombie Cities graphic novel. We are looking to raise a minimum of $2,000 to help assist printing costs of both books. So i do hope you will pre-order the new volume. Prices includes postage anywhere across Australia. You can also nominate to pick up your book at Supanova and we will refund the postage amount to you directly. Thank you all ;)
